A total of 105 deaths of response participants recorded in the Russian State Medical Dosimetric Register over 10 years after the Chernobyl accident are studied. Mortality coefficient for response participants changed from 0 in 1988 to 19.9 per 1000 in 1994 and the coefficient standardized by age from 0 (1988) to 2997 (1992) per 100 000 male population.
